SPECIES Rhinolophus maclaudi
| Author: | Pousargues, 1897. | | Citation: | Bull. Mus. Natn. Hist. Nat. Paris, 3: 358. | | Common Name: | Maclaud's Horseshoe Bat | | Type Locality: | Guinea, Conakry. | | Distribution: | Guinea. A record from Nigeria was based on misidentified specimens (Fahr et al., 2002). | | Status: | IUCN 2003 and IUCN/SSC Action Plan (2001) – Lower Risk (nt). Fahr et al. (2002) proposed that this be changed to Endangered. | | Comments: | maclaudi species group. Smith and Hood (1980) included ruwenzorii in this taxon, but morphological differences and a major range disjunction indicate that maclaudi and ruwenzorii are distinct species; see Csorba et al. (2003) and Fahr et al. (2002). Revised by Fahr et al. (2002), who provided a key to species in the maclaudi species group. |
